Rare Snowfall in Parts of the South Is Fun but Fleeting

A winter storm delivered a chilly blast to the Southeast on Sunday, bringing an unusual but short-lived dose of snow as far south as Florida and Georgia before traveling up the East Coast and into New England, where it was expected to linger into the night.

A winter storm warning in effect over the northwest of the Florida panhandle was lifted as much of the snow had melted in the afternoon, the National Weather Service said.
